I am writing a game for the Blackberry Playbook (which also might get released for Windows too), and am intending for the screen to be 1024x600, yet for some reason it runs at 640x480 on Windows. I'm probably doing something silly but I just can't see it (had a late night last night, so I'm not quite with it today lol).

I use this to setup display



I'm assuming that the SetOrientationAllowed call is correct also? I want it to start landscape and never rotate no matter what the user does with the tablet,

check in core.cpp and set:

#define DEVICE_WIDTH 1024
#define DEVICE_HEIGHT 600

Hmm, I assumed SetDisplayAspect and SetVirtualResolution were mutually exclusive. Are they not? What happens if they're different?

They both affect the same area of the engine, SetVirtualResolution(w,h) changes the aspect to w/h so calling SetDisplayAspect afterwards would override this. SetDisplayAspect is only really useful when using percentage coordinates which uses a virtual resolution of 100,100. Overriding an aspect ratio part way through a program would distort any sprites already created.
